# ActGuard

## The control plane for AI agents

Ship autonomous agents, without losing control.

ActGuard adds **runtime governance** to agent systems.
It sits between your agents and the APIs or tools they call, enforcing budgets, guardrails, and execution policies in real time.

You integrate it directly in your agent code and manage policies from a central gateway.

**Framework-agnostic. Model-agnostic. Vendor-neutral.**

## What you can do with ActGuard

* Enforce **token and spending budgets** per workspace, agent or plan
* Add **guardrails around tool usage**
* Send **alerts to Slack or webhooks** when policies are triggered
* Inspect **blocked runs and intervention events**

### Dashboard overview

Monitor agent runs and tool calls in real time

* See token usage and spending across agents and workspaces
* Inspect blocked executions when a policy is triggered
* Configure budgets, guardrails, and alert channels
* Review intervention events such as budget limits or policy violations

Instead of discovering problems after costs spike or tools are abused, ActGuard surfaces them **while the agent is executing**.
